'A democratic constitution is increasingly understood not only as one that provides for democratic structures but also one that is written democratically. But what does that mean, especially in places where the rules of democratic politics themselves are up for debate? Drawing on extensive empirical research, Tofigh Maboudi probes how civil society should best be included-and he bases his inquiry not simply by showing what can go right but also by probing what can go wrong. The resulting work provides richness and rigor to a burgeoning field.' Nathan J. Brown, Professor, George Washington University and Carnegie Endowment for International Peace
